AM talks/news/sports on the "clears" is alive-and-well. That is about 30 stations out of 5000. And several have already begun their move to FM from AM, starting with KSL! - Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - 30 stations ? Try again: http://www.northpine.com/broadcast/50kwam.html I have an idea... if the big boys don't seem to think AM is viable, why not give it back to the little local guys who CAN make it work? AM is still very viable. It's the likes of Clear Channel et. al. that are killing it by loading it down with the same **** all across the dial. Who the hell wants cookie cutter radio?

Your facts are worng, and you do not understand how easy it is to move a format from an AM to and FM.... many operators could do it on a few hours' notice! My favorite, WLW AM is ranked #1: "Radio Ratings Are In" "WLW-AM again was No. 1 for all listeners (ages 12 and older), as it has been since January 2000. It also was No. 1 in the 25-54 demo that advertisers want." It is declining in 25-54, and when it gets an FM competitor, it will be as dead in that demo as KDKA in Pittsburg is. No advertiser uses 12+ ratings for ad buys... that is why those numbers are given away for free. Oh, tell me.... how far down the list in 25-54 do you have to go to find the next AM station? I'll tell you... it is after 13 FMs in a row! So, in that market, there is 1 AM in the top 10, 25-54, and one in the top 20. The next is at #20. AM is dead. |

Do your homework and stop stretching the truth. I have, and it's enough so that I'm not white.. I'm of mixed race, and damn proud of it! dxAce Michigan USA Sorry buddy, You're not "mix race." So tell me who in your family in non-white? Get off the racial stuff. If you go back more than a few generations and you will find most people are of mixed race.

... The rest of AMs can only make money with religion, brokered shows or niche ethnic fare. Rush and "rush wannabes" plague the dial. Religious programs line up like ducks across the bands. Sports stations "reliving" old plays fall in between the above mess. And, then there are the "financial guys" telling me how to invest the millions I don't have :( And, there is a least one lawyer giving out advice on how to sue someone, somewhere at sometime ... I think I hate rush the worst ... Kim Komando is a refreshing relief on the weekend and Art Bell is not bad when he has a credible guest (George Noory sucks with his witches/warlocks and vampires :( ) It is hard to find anything funny, worthwhile, really informative or entertaining. I swear, it has to be a plan, you just couldn't ruin something that badly unless you had a good plan on how to do it :( JS -- http://assemblywizard.tekcities.com |

"Telamon" wrote in message ... David was on a roll and you had to go and spoil it. Actually I was saying the same thing all along... news/talk is a top format. Nearly all n/t stations are on Am, so nearly every market has one top rated (in the top 5 12+ and top 10 25-54). But as time moves on, the AM n/t audience is ageing because the under-55's do not listen to AM all that much. So the trend is to move the format to FM, where it does better. What we have is a major format on AM, not an attraction to the AM band. And the format is moving to FM, which will leave AM with nothing but tiny nice formats and religious broadcasters. |

But the only viable format on AM, news talk, is being moved from AM where it gets no salable audience, to FM, where it does. Once this happens, AM will have no magnet for listening in any age, and will die. Funny, KSL news/talk/sports is not dropping AM, plus as we saw, FM is over-allocated and tied up in the FCC, for quite some time. ?AM is not moving news/talk/sport to FM, ?just simulcasting, if that is even approved - too many listeners would be lost. You just don't get it. KSL is already on KSL-FM, in a simulcast, in preparation for an eventual total move of the format to FM when the demos on AM can no longer produce sales. Just as the same owner ALREADY did in Phoenix and Washington, DC., and is preparing to do in Seattle. WTOP, 50,000 watts in DC ceased its news and talk format on AM and took it to FM. The AM became specialty programming with no ratings. KTAR in Phoenix moved its n/t format to FM, and put sports on the old AM channel. KIRO, 50 kw in Seattle, is going to move to FM. Clear Channel in Pittsburgh and New Orleans has beaten KDKA and WWL with new FM news/talk stations in ratings and billing in 25-54. News/talkers in Orlando, Akron, Jersey, etc., on FM are winning. Stations owned by Cox and Clear in Jacksonville, Dayton, Tallahassee and several others are moving or have moved totally to FM only. These owners, holding over 1500 stations in the largest markets, know that AM can not get sales demos any more and they are moving the intellectual property to a band where such formats work in sales demos.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - As I stated, KSL is NOT turning off its AM, just simulcasting on FM. WTOP will still broadcast on AM. There are hundreds of 50KW AM stations: http://www.northpine.com/broadcast/50kwam.html To your shagrin, I will be able to DX many of these for many years from Maryland, long after you are dead. I don't have to listen to news/ talk/sports, as long as, there is AM to DX. When, Coast-To-Coast-AM , the "Truckers Network", WWL, WLW, WHO, WCCO, WSB, WABC, WSM, WGN, WBBM, WOR, WJR, CHWO, WHAS, WGY, CJBC, WHAS, WLS, CKLW, WTAM, WBT, KMOX, WHAM and others all disappear off AM, I'll let you know.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Actually as more and more AM Radio Stations go to FM; and there is fewer and fewer AM Radio Stations. The fun of DXing AM may just pick-up as the AM Band Clears up and the Night-Time AM Reception becomes more like the 1930s with a few long range "Catches" out there each Night to be Heard. ~ RHF |

Well, I have my pension from my previous employment, and I saved and invested. It could be much worse. Yeah, you could have not been a racist bigot. But I'm not!
